Patton Family: 2009

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

So i guess i have alot of updating to do. Many things have happened in our family from birthday's to birth's to more birthday's.

Malik Finally turned 1.

And it seemed like the very next day he just seemed so much more grown up to me.

He is walking and trying to talk.

His laugh is contagious.

He is now going to sleep on his own and i love that.

His Molar's are all coming in at once so you can imagine, he's a little cranky and clingy.

He Just LOVES his sister, he gives her kisses and hugs every night!

Nadia,

She is sooo Grown up!

It scares me sometimes when she acts more like a 13 year old than a 3 year old.

She is so Smart and Stubborn, i don't know where she gets it ;)

She has this bond with Rachelle that is unbreakable believe me i've tried!

These past few months valista had a baby and my Grandpa Smith had a Birthday! Here is a picture of all the grandkids on the Smith Side, some had never met before this day! And if you look real hard you can see the New baby Shawn in trevor's arms.

I really wanted to get a picture of Malik sleeping and finally did! So Sweet!

Here we are for Halloween. If you can't figure it out, I am the ScareCrow, Nadia's the wicked witch, Malik's the Lion, and Pat's the Yellow Brick Road!

And YES, i made my costume! i know i'm good!

on a sad note we had some Deaths in our family. Our chickens Started Laying Eggs, we are getting about 5 a day, and a Coyote Halled off 2 of our chickens, one of the Twins, and Cinnimon. who was also a twin.

we have been talking about death in our family alot to Nadia so she would understand that the chicken was not coming back,

One day she said, "mommy i want a dog! But not a dog that Barks"

I told her that all dogs Bark,

She said," But not a dead dog" i said "no not a dead dog"

she said, " I want a DEAD dog"

i didn't know whether to laugh or cry so i said, " but if the dog was dead then you couldn't play with or feed it and that would be no fun"

she said OK what about a CAT!

LOL!~
